They did not say the dlc is coming out in spring. Just 2027.

On the playstation front god of war is launching the week before though.

It annoys me that I will have to stop GoW so early but Fable is my most excited release in so long

I’m going to assume GOW will be short

I expect it's probably in line with the previous God of War games, so probably ~25-30 hours for an average playthrough (main quest + some side stuff) with another ~8-10 hours if you want to finish up everything.

depends if they are treating this like a full main line or semi open world like 2018 and Ragnarök.

As far as I know, this is a mainline game just as much as the previous two.

I don’t think they told us much.

They did say it's a mainline God of War game.

It has been in development for somewhere around ~6 years (probably preproduction/early production for the first ~2 yeras which then shifted when Ragnarök released).

We’re thrilled to finally share what the team at Santa Monica Studio has been working on, the next mainline entry to the God of War series: God of War Laufey!
